The first kingdom is the Chartreuse Kingdom, or the Kingdom of Metal. Each of the inhibatants are born by and raised from the Steel. The Legends of this kingdom are the toughest of the Kingdoms, yet are the slowest. They include the Knight, the Artilleryman, the Sharpshooter, and the Defender. As I said, this story is not about them, but about the Heirs. The sun rises on the Green Kingdom.
"Up and at 'em Al!" a booming voice exclaims. "Your mother's waitin'!"
"In a second Pa!" The 15 year old Heir of the Knight replies. He puts his green, flowing hair in a ponytail, puts on jeans and a tee-shirt and races down the stairs.
"What's the rush pal?" His father stops him.
"I'm meeting up with the others for breakfast"
"Do you have your seal and your pager?" his mother, the Knight of Chartreuse asks.
"Yes, ma." Albert replies as he runs out the door. He speeds down the sidewalk, and expectingly ran into someone.
"Hey! Whats the big deal man!?"
"Good to see you too, Albert". the 19 year old Heir of the Sharpshooter replies. Her hair is in bouncy curls, obscured by her beanie. She has a band tank top and a flannel, with black, torn khakis.
"Ah! Agnes! I was just headed t-" she cuts him off
"Yeah man, I know. We're headed to the same place. You really got to stop running down the street, man." she said.
"Sorry. I was running late because my alarm broke".
"That's a lame excuse. I've been to your house. You don't own an alarm" she replies as they go down the street.
"Looks like we're the first ones here" Albert says. "Where is Natalie? She's the one that scheduled this meeting two weeks in advance". The 16 year old Heir of the Defender walks in.
"Where in hell is Natalie?" he demands.
"She ain't here, Tim" Agnes replies.
"What is wrong with that girl?" Timothy mumbles
Whack
"What the shit was that for?"
"Don't make fun of your comerades, Tim" the 13 year old Heir of the Artilleryman nags.
"Finally, Natalie. Took you long enough." Albert says.
"My dad wouldn't get off my case this morning. He's such a pussy".
"Hey. You gotta respect the Legends, man" he replies.
"They haven't done anything for years. Why should I give a sh-"
Boom
"What the hell was that?" Natalie says. All of a sudden, their seals start glowing. They all give eachother silent looks. Albert bursts into tears.
